Losi 1/10 TEN-SCTE ARR 4x4 Short Course Truck Thread
OK, this might be a FNG question but the setups on Losi.com have a rear shock length of 100 to 102mm, how do you get the shock that short? Internal spacers? Also when they say "overall shock length" is it measured from the pivot ball centers or from the top of the shock cap to the end of the shock end? Thanks.
there a screw in the arm turn it in nice and slow and get the measurement you want
The play is rarely in the holder, but if yours is loose around the bearing, I'd just use a stocker to replace it. I don't have much good to say about STRC, and once the center diff doesn't vibrate all around, the stock plastic support is just fine.

Castle 1415 2400Kv or Tenshock SC411 4000Kv?
I'm currently using a Castle 1415 2400Kv on 2S with 20T, using the MMP ESC.
Thinking about changing over to the Tenshock SC411 (ie 4 pole sensored) 4000Kv.
I'm not racing per se, only using it on a outdoor 1:10 track and quite enjoy it and am just working on improving my driving.
1) Would you recommend changing over?
2) How many teeth pinion gear would I need, still running on 2S?
Thanks!

You measure center to center on the eyelets. You need to add about 3mm of spacers under the piston in the shock to get them to 100mm.

I ran 16T with the 4000kv TenShock. It was PDQ and still never got over 150F.

Krash. Get serrated nuts like Abstract posted. If you can't find the losi ones, traxxas and ofna both make them as well. For some reason these 4mm nuts don't last long with there locking feature and these serrated nuts are the answer. They will hold tight and keep your wheels one. Almost required for racing the 4X4. I used them on my 22 as well just to be on the safe side!
Does anyone know what abec the bearings are on the Center diff holder and the front and rear?
I was thinking of putting in a better bearing to make things spin more freely then it already is

Normal, yes, as they all do it stock. Designed that way, prolly not as it's only detrimental...just sloppy manufacturing tolerances. The HD units are the lightweight and hardened units linked below. They have a slightly larger shaft and reduce most of the wobble. They also last FAR longer than the stockers. One of the MUst BUY mods IMHO. They also make them for the front and rear, I'd buy all 3 sets if I was you as all 3 wobble, it's just easiest to see in the center diff.
